My research agenda is the holistic study of neutrality as a concept in world politics. Neutrality as a political position of states and international institutions (ICRC, IOC, etc.) is a neglected topic in political science but an important concept for the maintenance of peace among nations and the working of world trade and diplomacy during times of conflict. International relations most often conceptualizes the behavior of neutral actors as a form of “balancing” or “bandwagoning” but these concepts cannot adequately capture the experiences or motivations of neutrals. It is my goal to write a comprehensive account of neutrality across periods and geographies and deduce a theoretical framework to understand the concept as a phenomenon of global politics and conflict sociology. I am using an eclectic research design, integrating historical case studies, literary works, and philosophy with qualitative and quantitative political science methods to achieve this goal.
